walking back from the library just now and i saw a hedgehog looking left and right before scuttling across the road and along the pavement. not sure i've ever seen a hedgehog walking around at night before so obviously i was surprised to see that they have evolved the green cross code.

foxes are also good to see. like the way they turn their heads, acknowledge you and then carry on doing their business [looking for bins and cats etc]

any other good animals to fit into this category? never seen a deer running about outside the offy but one ended up in boots in lowestoft once after it got lost at night so i guess that would be a good one to cross off the list

When I was a student in Bath, I was walking down the wooded alley that was a shortcut into town and a badger stepped out right in front of me. It clocked me, clearly decided I wasn't a threat then walked down the path. I followed it for about five minutes. They are not the most graceful of animals.

I was driving on the M4 somewhere between Cardiff and Port Talbot - it was about 2 in the morning.
Suddenly all the traffic slowed and we caught up with about thirty or forty horses running along the motorway. I had to swerve around them to overtake.

walking home late one night I found a neighbour whispering "foxy... here foxy foxy foxy", whilst holding a plate of bacon. i was a bit drunk and was like, "um, I don't think you're meant to feed foxes"

my old old old flatmate's cat, never the brightest thing at the best of times and certainly not aggressive at all, somehow managed to stare down and scare off a fox twice her size. i only caught the end of it sadly but she puffed up like i've never seen and the fox went whimpering for the hills.

there are loads of rabbits, and you see them walking about at night/early morning a lot, and they're all the brown ones with the white tails. also hedgehogs. its so cute, once i saw a family of hedgehogs asleep at night in the grass

It's cause they can enter the vixen unerect (they have a bone in their dicks to give them a headstart). The vixen then locks her minge muscles round his member to ensure that he gets all his fox spaff up her once stiff. The lock can then go on for up to 45 minutes so they just stand bum hole to bum hole until he is released.

in broad daylight, scuttling around the place even. They seem OK though, they look and actlike (big) mangy cats. Hedgehogs are fun, their legs are longer than you think, plus they can run pretty well considering. I have also never seen a live badger, but loads of dead ones.

The sound it's claws made on the tarmac was really eerie. Scuttle scuttle. It was about 11ish and I was walking back on my own from the pub so had a drunken moment of panic thinking what the fuck I'd do if a badger turned on me but it darted into a bush and down the embankment. True story.

I also had to shepherd a hedgehog out of a road in Ipswich. We nearly ran it over in the car so stopped and saw it to safety in a nearby park. I kinda chased it with my coat so I hope it wasn't too scared. Better than being squished on a road though I guess.

after reading this to see if we have any hedgehogs tonight. We have none. We usually have at least one nightime creature in the garden that isn't our cat. We've had a peacock roost in the garden a couple of times in the past - they had a home in a big park near us but they're all dead now.
